Looking for a job as backend developer, a Sankey diagram
(programming.dev)
Data collected from Oct 6th, 2023, until today. All data collected by me.
Applied to 61 job offers on different sites (LinkedIn mostly, but also some minor Spanish job sites). All of them were for Django or Python backend developer (asking for Django, FastAPI or Flask), mostly mid/senior level, but some of them even were for junior level, just in case.
Yeah. Standard rejection emails are good. I have gotten some really nice rejection emails. I haven't dwelt on them long enough to know what sets them apart.
I have gotten a couple of rejections and thought: huh, I forgot I applied there. I have been wanting to do a diagram like this for my current job hunt, but I think I am getting a higher percentage of rejections than OP.
That's all what I need, tbh.
Even:
Would be better than nothing.
Kinda rude, but yes. Better than ghosting us.
Seriously, sharing this bad feeling with you all and seeing we're not alone, make me feel better about it.
